Last week Activision finally unveiled the Sledgehammer-Games-developed Call of Duty: Vanguard, but we didn’t get much in the way of real gameplay. Yes, the debut trailer was said to be largely in-engine, but it was also heavily edited and manipulated. What’s the game actually look like with a controller in your hands? Well, we found out at Gamescom Opening Night Live where Sledgehammer Games and voice actor Laura Bailey led us through an extended mission playthrough, and it looks like Vanguard isn’t going to be Call of Duty as usual.

Bailey stars as female protagonist Paulina, who we see making her way through war-torn Stalingrad. The gameplay is a lot darker, moodier, and more cinematic than what we’ve come to expect from Call of Duty – it seems pretty clear Sledgehammer is taking some notes from recent Wolfenstein games with Vanguard. That said, there’s still plenty of bombastic action, including a full on Nazi air assault. Overall, the game is looking very impressive from both a technical and artistic approach. But hey, enough of my blabbing, check out the footage for yourself, below. Check out the new Vanguard footage for yourself, below.
